Join us for any or both of our two Field Foraging Plant ID intensives of our 5-week Foraging Herbalist Series where you will be immersed in the Art of Wild Foraging and Native Plant Identification.
Saturdays, April 19th and May 3rd we will travel abroad from our base to explore the upper and/or lower Sonoran Desert and its flora. These hikes will be offered locally for half day excursions as well as all day trips as far as Sedona, AZ based on group discussions, locations TBD.
Special emphasis will be placed on native plant identification and traditional uses, as well as foraging tips and techniques. The locations selected will offer students wild foraged herbs for their personal apothecaries. We will cater to individuals with limited abilities as needed. These excursions are spectacular adventures especially designed to reconnect our students with natures healing vibes.
Each weekend will offer takeaways inclusive of herbal products, data sheets, and wild foraged herbs. We encourage you to come prepared to hike, harvest and explore mother nature!
This is an opportunity to grow your nature connection and understanding of plant healing, giving you the confidence necessary to find the miracles you need in nature!
